Episode Summary
Imagine a future where diseases like leukemia, sickle cell anemia and multiple sclerosis are no longer life sentences, but treatable and even curable. That is the promise of gene therapy.
In this episode, Namritha Ravinder, director of cell biology at Thermo Fisher Scientific, explains the groundbreaking technologies that correct the genetic errors in our cells that lead to disease. These gene therapies may offer permanent solutions with single-dose treatments.
Namritha also provides an expert’s view on what’s to come from more than 2,000 gene therapies in the pipeline, and the innovation needed to make these new treatments accessible to patients.
